Welcome back to our weekly Top 10 Android App Updates column, where we take a look at the most upgraded apps for the week. I’ve found that one of the best ways to discover useful apps is to look at what people are actually updating, not focus on which apps have the most installs. As in the past, we’re going to filter out minor updates for the super popular apps that have over 10 million installs, but I’m going to make an exception for apps that had significant updates. I hope you enjoy this weekly feature and discover some apps that you might find useful.

I was first introduced to Android with the Samsung Fascinate and I've been hooked ever since. I love the customization that Android offers the user to personalize their phone. I enjoy writing and have been blessed with the opportunity to share this passion for Android with others.

When I heard that labs and things like the bubble buttons for navigation were going to be gone I was unhappy, but I like how they’ve integrated it. Having the navigation option at the bottom after searching for something is pretty slick, and I especially like being presented with the route options.

I definitely will miss Latitude though. Yeah, yeah, it’s gonna be available as part of Google+, but my wife and I don’t use that and are not about to start just for that one feature. Pulling a mapping related feature out of maps and cramming it into their social program screams of a desperate attempt to drum up G+ use.

I’m also not happy about losing the ability to save offline maps like in the previous version. being able to have maps load quickly when you’re in an area with sketchy or no service was a godsend. I’ve heard they’re working on bringing that back though…
